Chapter 225 Traditional Instrumental Music
People all over the world are looking forward to Zhang Yao's performance, including the stars who participated in the ceremony, and when the host announced that Zhang Yao would perform on stage, these stars reacted similarly to the fans.
To everyone's surprise, although Zhang Yao was still dressed in a signature style, he didn't seem to plan to dance, and he was still holding a hexagram instrument in his hand. Strange refers to the reaction of Europeans and Americans, and people from the Celestial Empire and even Southeast Asian countries should recognize it at a glance, it is a pipa.
After dancing a few movements, Zhang Yao sat on the stool handsomely and took the pipa in his arms, and as soon as the fierce music sounded, it immediately shocked everyone.
Zhang Yao also wants to dance, and understands that everyone wants to see this, but at this time, it is more meaningful to perform traditional instruments, and he plays the famous pipa song "Ambush on All Sides".
There is a similar story of the struggle between Chu and Han in this time and space, but it is not Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, and there is no Yu Ji, so naturally there is no such song "Ambush on All Sides".
This song shows the scene of Xiang Yu being besieged by the army, the tune is fast and slow, strong and weak, inspiring and shocking, if the people of the Celestial Empire Musicians Association see it, it is estimated that the situation will be exciting again.
Because of the time limit for the guest's performance, Zhang Yao had to give up dancing, and even then it was not enough to finish the performance of this more than six-minute song, only two parts were played.
There are a lot of smart musicians present, and it is a pity to be able to hear that the song is not over yet, but there is no way but to look forward to the next time.
After pop music, the general category of awards will be awarded, and it will be the final prize. Zhang Yao once again won two awards: Best Album of the Year and Best Newcomer of the Year. Eight trophies were lifted for the first time in history.
After that, I will participate in a cocktail party and be interviewed. The reporter arranged the trophies in a row for a photo, and it took nearly an hour before it ended.
The next day, full of reports related to the Grammys, Zhang Yao won eight trophies and swept the Grammys This time naturally became the top priority, and other singers became foils at this moment, there is no doubt that he is the protagonist of the Grammys this time.
The only thing that can't steal the limelight is the red carpet, which is a venue for actresses to compete for beauty, and European and American stars have always been bold and innovative. It also grabbed a lot of space.
Zhang Yao's performance of pipa music at the award ceremony was also reported by the American media, although most people may not know each other, but it is not difficult to find out.
The report ended the pipa as a musical instrument, and there were special musicians to comment on the music, Zhang Yao had nothing to say in this regard, and "Ambush on All Sides" was also highly praised in the United States, successfully promoting the traditional culture of the Celestial Empire.
Because of this, the media of the Celestial Empire are even more excited, it is enough for a Celestial Empire person to create an award-winning record, not to mention the promotion of traditional culture. CCTV once again made a big report.
"Many media said that they could do an exclusive interview, including CCTV."
Ai Xiaoqi said: "You guys are really too windy this time. I was so excited that I was not surprised that the media would flock to me. ”
"It's not an accident, but we're in the United States, and if we agree to an exclusive interview, the domestic media will come to the United States?"
Ai Xiaoqi said: "What's the fuss about, isn't it unusual for reporters to go abroad to interview, the question is whether you want to agree." ”
"This is a good opportunity, why don't you agree."
Hoshino Asuka said: "And I heard that CCTV in the Celestial Empire is very special, and it doesn't seem good to refuse." ”
"If you don't want to accept it, a tactful refusal won't be anything, after all, today is different from the past."
Zhang Yao has no enmity with CCTV, and has no worries, Li Xiuyan continued: "But I also think that the introduction of interviews is good, and I should often show my face in China." ”
"Well, I think so too, but I still don't give those reporters the opportunity to go abroad at public expense."
Zhang Yao smiled and said: "My new Chinese album can't forget that the love song is almost on the market, and the domestic is the focus of the album, so I plan to go back." ”
"Just like Sister Xiaoyi said, I should often go back and show my face, otherwise some people will say that I forgot my roots. Sister Xiaoyi, you should also be ready to prepare a new album with the wind, whether to stay in the United States. ”
"I'll fly here, you fly back, what's going on?"
Zheng Xiao was also unhappy, and said: "Anyway, I don't sign a contract with Universal Music, they just release it, and it's not the same for the album to be produced back to China." ”
"In that case, let's go together, there are more people and more lively."
Christine followed and coaxed, she had long wanted to go to the Celestial Empire for a walk, and now that she had the opportunity, she would not be happy, Zhang Yao said: "Okay, just decide, take my trophy and go back." ”
The first thing I did after I went back was not to accept an interview, but to promote the new album "Can't Forget Love Song", which is so popular that it is actually a very simple thing to promote, mainly to reveal a news, and the media will report it hype.
Because the distribution in Asia is in charge of Dawn Studios, it has to meet with the distributor, and only when these things are done can I accept an exclusive interview with CCTV.
For this reason, Zhang Yao also took the initiative to fly to the capital, one is to go to the editorial department of "The King of Picture Books" to meet Yang Tian and them, and the other is to meet with fans.
After talking about the Grammys from space dance, what is the mood of getting eight awards, the famous CCTV host asked again: "Zhang Yao, you played the pipa when the Grammys performed, is this any purpose?" ”
Needless to say, Zhang Yao didn't need to deliberately greet the answer he wanted to hear, because it was originally like this, and said: "I like music, whether it is traditional music or Western music, so I also learned a lot of traditional instruments in addition to Western instruments." ”
"Playing the pipa is really deliberate, because I want more people to understand and value our traditional music, so I did it."
The host heard the answer he wanted, and then asked: "This piece called Ambush on All Sides is also very well received abroad, and it is not weaker than the music of Western instruments, will you continue to perform traditional instruments in the future?" ”
"Definitely, that's going to be the main direction for me to do it in the future."
In the original time and space, Zhang Yao also learned traditional musical instruments because he understood that many tunes handed down from ancient times can be regarded as natural sounds, and he still has a lot of music to come up with. (To be continued......)
